Games like God of Word

A typical game among these

≈ 162k–421k copies

≈ $792k–$2.4M after Steam's cut

from ~6k reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019's Steam releases earned $34k or more before Steam's cut, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Emily is Away at ≈ 1.6M–2.6M copies. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 459 reviews in their first month; the range was 189 to 1k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Typing (5 of 8) and Simulation (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Story Rich + Choices Matter, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer + Choices Matter + Story Rich; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2013 to 2021, and none of them shipped in the last two years.

How these numbers were worked out

A hit here: 1,000+ reviews, roughly $150k+ before Steam's cut (a standard indie benchmark).

Copies come from each game's reviews times a sales-per-review rate that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
